Description

Unix runmode can deadlock when there are too many threads and/or the packet pool is too small.

The combined per thread thresholds for returning packets to the original non-local pool exceeds the pool size, so pcap file reader threads waits for packets and workers don't return them as they didn't reach the threshold yet.
